PACIFIC REPRESENTED 

AT EXTEMP CONTEST 



ENDEAVOR WEEK IS 

OBSERVED BY FRIENDS 



The Pacific College Prune Picking 
quintet dulled the Wildcat claws ef- 
fectively and breezed through a fast 
game with flying colors to defeat Lin- 
field College by a 41-33 score, Thursday 
afternoon, on the local floor. Believe 
it or not! 

If the regulars on the Wildcat team 
had been an irresistible force they 
couldn't have stopped any more abrupt- 
ly than they weie by the immovable 
Quakers. It took a second stringer, 
Eckman, to lead the Linfield team in 
scoring with ten points while no other 
player produced more than four count 
ers. That Prune Picking trio, Harle, 
Cole and Donnell stretched our their 
long fingers and cleaned up thoroughly 
under every tree. These three picked 
seventeen baskets among themselves, 
counting more points than the Wildcat 
total. Nevertheless, it took Sandoz to 
start the ball rolling with a pretty long 
shot that balanced the ledger again just 
after Linfield had apparently started on 
another rampage. 

So the game started, the locals secur- 
ing three more baskets and a foul be- 
fore Linfield decided that it might be 
wise to call a time out. After that 
it was a little more even, although the 
Quakers were ahead throughout the 
half and the period ended 21-17 in their 
favor. 

Evidently the rather harsh words 
that Coach Sick had to say to his be- 
fuddled, team during the Intermission 
at the half bolstered his team up, at 
least six points worth because that was 
the number of points which they snatch- 
ed to begin the half and to gain the 
lead for the second time. Not for long, 
however, for the Prune Pickers, after 
a brief time out, came back and soon 
forged into the comfortable lead that 
they had held and added four more 
points advantage to it. Prom then on, 
the weary players matched basket for 
basket until a stentorian voice announc- 
ed to the wild-eyed crowd that there 
was one minute left to play. Cook 
started a threatening rally with a bas- 
ket but all Wildcat hopes that had mo- 
mentarily surged within them sank to 
their normal state when Donnell, on 
the next play, took the oval and caged 
one from center. The game ended soon 
after and about seventy-five per cent 
of the crowd who attended loudly ac- 
claimed with the last pantings of their 
voices their complete satisfaction, the 
victory bell was rung, and five tired 
boys proved to the world that although 
nothing but disaster had overtaken them 
before last Thursday, they still con- 
tained ample Prune Picking pep to bring 
home enough bacon to nourish excited 
basketball fans. 

As to individual men the writer wish- 
es to state that Bob Bissett, acting as 
captain, has the grip and, spring of a 
tiger. Very few men outjump him and 
when he gets that ball In his hands 
under the basket he hangs onto it. 
This Prune Picker not only picks the 
leather prune out of the air but he 
wins every argument as to whose prune

The extemporaneous speaking con- 
test of the Intercollegiate Porensies As- 
sociation of Oregon was held nt Lin- 
field college on Friday night, Febru- 
ary 14. The contestants drew their top- 
ics one hour before they were to speak 
and prepared their own speech without 
aid. 

Before the contest proper opened the 
audience was entertained by a pipe-or- 
gan solo by Keith Verner of Linfield. 
Mr. Verner again delighted his listen- 
ers while they were waiting for the de- 
cision of the judges. 

The first topic was "The World Court 
as an Aid to Disarmament." The sec- 
ond was "Submarine Menace to World 
Peace;" the third was "Should Disarm- 
ament Be Gradual or Immediately Com- 
plete?" The fourth was. "Are the Na- 
tions Ready to Disaim?" The fifth was 
"The Relationship of the Kellogg Pact 
to World Peace." The sixth was, "Na- 
tional Security and World Disarma- 
ment." The seventh was, "Russia and 
D'sarmament;" and the last was "Ob- 
stacles to World Disarmament." 

The University of Oregon won the 
contest and Willamette University was 
given honorable mention. 

Pacific college was very ably repre- 
sented by La Verne Hutchens speaking 
on "Obstacles to Disarmament." 



FRIENDS HOLD RALLY 

The first Friends Quarterly Meeting 
Christian Endeavor Rally of this winter 
was held the evening of February 8. 
Although a basketball game interfered 
somewhat with the attendance of the 
college students, an interested group 
from the various monthly meetings was 
present for the program. Loyde Os- 
burfl played a piano solo; then La Verne 
Hutchens, Quarterly Meeting C. E. su- 
perintendent, took charge of a short 
discussion of the "Friends with Christ" 
chart, on which all Friends societies 
should be working. Prof. Macy's help- 
ful address on "How Christian Endeav- 
orers Affect Public Opinion" was the 
main part of the program. Aside from 
the necessities of education and being 
true to our Christian ideals, he stressed 
sincerity, world mindedness and enthu- 
siasm. The group demonstrated some 
of its enthusiasm by singing several 
songs before closing for a short period 
of getting acquainted. 



A pot luck supper celebrating Chris- 
tian Endeavor week was given by the 
j Friends Intermediate and Senior En- 
deavors before prayer meeting on Feb- 
! ruary 12. Since one purpose of the 
' evening was to foster better coopera- 
tion between the church and the C. E. 
I societies both former and present En- 
j deavorers were invited. A group of 
over fifty were present to enjoy fellow- 
ship together and consider the Endeavor 
work. 

Lloyd Osburne a new student this 
semester opened the program of the eve- 
ning with two piano solos. The presi- 
dent of the Senior society spoke briefly 
on some of the interesting history of 
the Newberg C. E. including the fact 
that Herbert Hoover helped organize 
the first society when he was a member 
of "The Band of Hope" in the church 
here. Miss Sutton a former C. E. ad- 
visor then gave some reminiscences. 
She recalled, several worth-while meet- 
ings and brought out the fact that al- 
though Endeavor now is much the same 
as formerly, progress has been made in 
the last few years. Dorene Heacock 
gave a reading, "Candle Lighting Time," 
and Burton Frost, president of the In- 
termediate society, sang a vocal solo. 
Mr. Brown gave an exceedingly interest- 
ing talk on "How C. E. Can Be of More 
Value to the Church." Besides bring- 
ing out the theory of the question, he 
offered some helpful practical sugges- 
tions. In closing, Mr. Frost led in sing- 
ing "Blest Be the Tie that Binds." 



LOCAL PASTOR SPEAKS 

J. Raymond Fite, pastor of the Chris- 
tian church, gave an interesting and 
helpful chapel talk Friday, Feb. 21. 

The main thought was that we are 
all seeking for happiness. We base 
our moral laws on certain standards 
which have come from the past. What 
we must do is to dress the truth of 
the past in the clothes of today. 

The love of God in our hearts is the 
flist great commandment and if we 
have that love, we will naturally love 
humanity. The central point and prac- 
tical purpose of religion is to live up 
to the highest ideals that we know. 

Mr. Fite closed by saying that if we 
carry in our hearts the true love of 
God and for humanity, we will surely 
gain success in our future lives. 



Dennis McGuire spent the week end 
of February 14-17 in Seattle, Washing- 
ton. 



VALENTINE PARTY 

Those of the dormitories had just 
about decided that it was time for an- 
other party, when one occurred. This 
took the form of a Valentine's party 
as it was on Friday evening, February 
14. The social was held in various parts 
of the girls' dormitory, namely, the of- 
fice, parlors, and dining room. The par- 
lors were so transformed by appropriate 
valentine decorations and lamps, that 
they did not seem as part of the "old" 
dormitory. The dining room took the 
air of a large room decorated for fes- 
tival occasions, with the tables pushed 
back and chairs differently arranged. 

Some of the more interesting games 
that took place in the parlors were a 
Heart Hunt and Descriptive initials. In 
the heart hunt, George seemed to take 
delight in posing with a rug held up 
In the air while others took a reaching 
position and still others liked to stand 
on their heads while looking for hearts. 
The pastime of descriptive Initials 
seemed very amusing for it did seem 
hard to find enough complimentary 
words to describe each person in the 
group. Another game which caused 
much merriment was one called blind 
swat. Loyde and Link did want to hit 
each other so badly that it was very 
funny. 

The party then adjourned to the din- 
\ ing room where there were several more 
i active games. Frank and Miss Binford 
each wanted the candy while chewing 
the string and the dining room was 
not big enough for them so they es- 
caped to the kitchen only to be recalled. 
The old favorite of Ruth and Jacob 
caused much merriment especially when 
Adam and Eve were also in the circle. 
It was time then to choose partners 



POPULAR LECTURE 
INTEREST^ AUDIENCE 

Pres. Pennington Gives Eighth 
Lyceum Number 



(Continued on page two) 



Another lecture on the lyceum course 
was given by President Pennington on 
the evening of February 13. His sub- 
ject was "Shepherd Dogs and Pessim- 
ists." He opened his address by saying 
that the dog Is simply a domesticated 
wolf and if allowed to run wild would 
breed back to wolves. The shepherd 
dog is unlike his ancestors In that the 
wolf preyed upon the sheep while the 
dog has now been changed in nature 
until he defends the sheep against 
wolves and dogs alike. 

Pessimists have always been well 
known. One usually defines them by 
comparing them with optimists. The 
optimist sees the doughnut, the pessim- 
ist sees the hole. The pessimist says, 
"Is there any milk in that pitcher," 
while the optimist says, "Please pass 
the cream." 

The shepherd dog did not know wolf 
nature could not change, so he became 
domesticated. We can all receive a great 
message from him, the speaker contin- 
ued. Temptations and the evils of temp- 
tation are known to all. The call is 
usually to take the dangerous, easy 
way instead of the hard, safe way. 
Temptation is very real, no matter what 
our theories are. It induces a man to 
live the life he ought not live and fail 
in the achievements he ought to have. 
There are many kinds of temptations. 
Some are like the lion in the brush 
who seizes the deer when it comes to 
drink. The deer paid for getting water 
there, and so it is with us. The lion 
is not always in the same place for all 
people. For some it may be the han- 
dling of money, for others the smell 
of alcohol. Find where the lion waits 
for you and go a long way to avoid 
that place. 

Then other temptations are like the 
bear which just goes around, here, there 
and everywhere. At some encounters 
with these animals it means the life 
of the bear or the life of the man, and 
so it is with such temptations. 

There are also temptations like the 
wolf which follows after only one pur- 
pose and one man. The shepherd dog 
fights, on the dog level, the temptations 
inherited from his ancestors. "Shall we 
give up our struggle when the shep- 
herd dog fights and wins?" asked Pres- 
ident Pennington. 

There are tasks as well as tempta- 
tions. "God pity the man who has a 
task too small for him. He will surely 
shrink. Happy is he who has a job 
too big for him. He will surely grow." 
Most successful people feel Inadequate 
for their positions and others struggle, 
become discouraged and wish to quit 
for something else. They should look 
into the eyes of the shepherd dog who 
( says, "Don't hold a thing to be impos- 
sible just because it is difficult." 

Everyone looks ahead sometimes to 
what he wishes he might be. Although 
ambitions change, they will presently 
crystalize and no matter what one longs 
to be, never say, "I can't achieve that." 

The social message of the shepherd 
dog is a message of hope to humanity —

APPRECIATION 

As I write this, perhaps the last editorial I will write for the 
Crescent, there is a feeling of regret that I will no longer get to 
work with the staff in producing our college paper. I have enjoyed 
the work of the past years very much. It has been very educa- 
tional and interesting to me. I wish to take this opportuniy to 
express my thanks to the staff for the splendid way in which they 
have assisted in making the paper possible. Each one has filled 
his or her position well. I think that special recognition should 
go to the business manager, Ralph Moore, and to the circulation 
manager, Lincoln Wirt. They have done much to make the paper 
possible from a financial standpoint. To the associate editor, 
Marion De Vine, I extend my thanks for his assistance in com- 
posing the paper. It has been a pleasure to work with him. 

The last Student Body administration has been a good one. 
Each officer has accepted the responsibilities of that particular 
office and carried out the duties in a splendid way. May the next 
group of officers endeavor to carry on the work in as thorough 
a manner. May we as members of the Student Body assist them 
in every way possible with our support. 



JUVENILES? 

It is an unfailing indication of the juvenile mind to find 
derogatory pictures and statements on the blackboard, sidewalk, 
or wall. It seems to me to be at least as puerile to write upon 
the notices on the bulletin board or to place notices there giving 
opinions that the author would be ashamed or afraid to declare 
publicly. Is the college bulletin board to be the clearing house 
for a lot of small gossip and supposed witticisms? Shall mem- 
bers of a student body of this type be moved by mere student 
body elections, to return to these kindergarten pranks? Let us 
hope not. M. N. D. 



As a parting thought to you students, may I leave this little 
poem: 

Who ne'er has suffered, he has lived but half 
Who never failed, he never strove nor sought. 
Who never wept is stranger to a laugh, 
And he who never doubted, never thought. 

Adios, 

Ye smiling editor.

whatever ought to be done, may be done

traffic in liquor, also. 

There is now another age-old, world- 
wide institution based on human in- 
stincts and entangled with international 
politics. War! We have made progress 
in spite of seemingly insurmountable dif- 
ficulties as is evidenced by the court 
of arbitration, the London Conference, 
the Peace Pact. etc. The greatest hu- 
man task and problem in the world to- 
day is, "Shall war destroy civilization, 
or shall civilization destroy war?" The 
pessimist says, "No, you can't change 
human nature." But yes, you can, just 
as wolf nature was changed. Let us 
make our contribution, the speaker said 
in closing.

PAW WILDCATS 



(Continued from page one) 

that is, and each little Wildcat would 
climb upon Bob's hairy chest only to 
be shaken off with the ball still in Bob's 
possession. George Donnell, foimer 
football star, uses tactics learned in 
this game to good advantage. When- 
ever the ball rests on the floor you can 
be certain that George will lengthen 
himself out on the floor with the ball 
tucked under his arm. George played 
the best game this year against Linfield, 
was a stone wall on defense a 1 ? well as 
adding five net-swishing baskets to the 
score. Fred Harle enjoyed the game 
to its fullest extent. Playing without 
any guards for the injured parts of his 
legs he gathered in six baskets, one 
of which he especially enjoyed because 
he thinks it was "unconscious." Not 
only offensively but Fred's opponent, 
Warren, generally a high scorer, was 
let down without a point. Carl Sandoz 
was feeling in an industrious mood and 
took it out on the Wildcat foi wards 
by hoMing the many players who op- 
posed him within a reasonable number 
of points. Carl started the ball rolling 
in the first half and later added an- 
other basket. Frank Cole, playing his 
last game against Linfield, also had a 
good <'ny and- gathered in six baskets 
and a foul. One of Frank's baskets was 
a long one fiom wide center just after 
he had received a tip-off. The boys all 
played bang-up ball and displayed a 
wonde ful spirit of determination which 
brought the desired results. 

The line-ups: 
Pacific— 41 33 -Linfield 

Harle (12) _ F (4) lTollinshend 

Cole (1 '.) F (10) Eckman 

Donned (10) C (5) Kiugsley

Substitutions: For Linfield — Cook (1), 
Giliam (2), Darby (2), Sargent (2). 

'Referee — P. T. Bahd. Tlmekc.-pjr — 
DeVine. 



Cole, and Donnell all secured 
baskets from near center. The 
first basket for the local team, 
made by Sandoz, and the last 
basket of the game, made by 
George, were long ones. These 
are the kind that furnish ex- 
citement ! 



Oh, yes! I forgot to mention 
the Monmouth game in my 
sportitorials. Well, we came, we 
saw, but they conquered! 



P. C. VS. M. E. CHURCH 

Minus the services of BIssett and Cole, 
the Prune Pickers defeated the Method- 
ist Church team in an exciting conflict 
80-29, on the local floor, Saturday, the 
15th. 

George Donnell was high man with 
six baskets which he shot from several 
positions in the extreme portions of the 
[ gym. Sandoz moved up to forward 
I with Harle and Whitlock. Post, Mil- 
lett and Baker comprised (he rest of 
the team. 



SPORTITORIALS 

Well, well! Oh, my! Believe 
it or not! Whoopee! Because 
the writer of these articles hap- 
pens to be a member of the 
Prune Picking quintet please ex- 
cuse his vanity when he says 
that the whole team played su- 
perb basket ball against Linfield. 
I have played against Linfield 
eight times and at last I can 
receive my diploma and not feel 
cheap because of an inner feel- 
ing of disgrace at having never 
played in a basket-ball game 
where the local team came out 
victor. Everybody happy? I 
am! 



PACIFIC WINS AGAIN; 

GIRLS SMOTHER REED 



TRIUMPH AT LAST 

Did you ever stop to realize that one 
of Pacific's basketball stars saw his 
hopes and dreams come true for the 
first and last time in his college career 
last Thuisday night at the end of the : 
great Linfield victory? Give it a thought. 
For four long years, some victorious, 
some heart-breaking, Frank Cole has 
been playing varsity basketball for P. 
C. Always has he kept spirit and fight 
in the teams because of his support of 
the other player, his "never give up" 
attitude, and yet Frank has always been 
the cleanest man on the floor. The 
writer has played with Frank a lot and 
holds a lot of admiration for Frank's 
attitude toward basketball. 

Eight times in his career has Frank i 
played against Linfield. and seven of [ 
those times we have been defeated, yet 
did you ever see Frank give up hope? : 
i Not much! Last Thursday, in his last 1 
| gome with our old rivals, Frank Cole 
! played tho best game of his basketball 
career at Pacific, and whnt a whale of 
a game 'it was, too! Let's all get out 
| and root for Frank in the Inst few 
1 games he will play for his old Alma 
Mater, and show him that his efforts 
have not been wasted. 

In days to come Pacific's athletes can 
well look up to the excellent record of 
Frank 'Linen' Cole to guide them 
through old P. C. CONGRATULA- 
TIONS, FliANK- 



Say, by the way, didn't the 
girls make the Reed "ferns" look 
sick? Twenty-seven to fifteen! 
The boys win, the girls win, ev- 
erybody wins! Ain't we got 
fun? 



Journeying, as most folks thought, to 
their fate as they did last year, the Pa- 
cific Girls spilled dope all over the Reed 
College gym Saturday night, February 
15, and tromped on the Reed girls to 
the tune of 27-15. The game was fast, 
fairly clean, and exciting to watch, al- 
though P. C. led the whole game. A 
superior passing attack and a fighting 
spirit held by the girls throughout the 
game played a large part in giving 
them the 'bacon.' Each girl played her 
own game and kept but one purpose in 
mind — teamwork. Spirit like that can- 
not he downed. 

If anything stood out above the stel- 
lar playing of the entire team, it was 
the shooting eye of Dot No: dyke, who 
would make some of P. C.'s boys hang 
their heads in shame. Dot made 20 
points. Worthy of no less note was the 
airtight defence of Lillian Barnes and 
Dot MeMichacl at guards, for the tide 
of the game often depended on them. 

However, we also can rave for hours 
about the smooth playing of Beulah Bale 
er and Elinor Whipple at center posi- 
tions who fed the forwaids; to say noth- 
ing of the pass work of Merdy Davey 
playing forward. Merdy sank some nice 
baskets of her own too. 

Altogether it was a well played game, 
and when the return game is played on 
our own court, the whole student body 
should be out to root. 

The team and accessories were enter- 
tained by the Reed team after the game. 

The game was refereed by Link Wirt, 
which, contrary to rumois, bad nothing 
to do with the score. 



CONTEST AUDITED 

The orating of an oration by the 
orators at the extemporaneous speak- 
ing contest was audited by the follow- 
ing students: Wlnified Woodward, 
Delia Hanville, Pauline Crew, Mary Sue 
Binford, Dorothea Nordyke, Lynn 
Hampton, Helen Williams. Burton 
Frost, Eldon and Ethel Newberry. 



The Prune Pickers made a disastrous 
invasion of the Monmouth Wolf lair 
on February 18 and returned home on 
the short end of an 85-24 score. Bram- 
hill of Monmouth pushed in twenty- 
four points in a pretty exhibition of 
basket-shooting. The Pacilic boys fought 
hard but were unable to locate their 
basket.

Sandy started the ball rolling 
by crediting the Prune Pickers 
with two points on a nice long 
basket that made the net sing 
and nearly tore it off. 

By the way, the whole team 
hit several long baskets. Harle,

February 12 

Prof. Perisho's speech, "Relation of 
Science to Religion," held the interest 
of the Y. M. C. A. February 12. Prof. 
Perisho says, "Science is an honest at- 
tempt to find the truths in nature; Re- 
ligion is an honest attempt to find the 
relation between man and God. 'Be 
able to put your beliefs to a test,' says 
the eminent scientist, for the difficu] 
ties in religion coino from confusion 
of the facts we see." He also states 
that the trouble arising between Sci- 
ence and Religion comes through dis- 
cussion of the subject by some person 
who knows but one side of the ques- 
tion. 

February 19 

The Y. M. C. A. met February 19 and 
discussed the Seabeck Conference to be 
held this year at Seabeck. 

The meeting was turned over to El- 
more Jackson, a former delegate to Sea- 
beck, who after describing Seabeck and 
his experiences there asked Professors 
Aimstrong, Conover and Perisho to en- 
lighten the Y. M. C. A. concerning their 
experiences while being there; the good 
derived from the trip; and that which 
one could expect upon going to Seabeck 
this year. 

The faculty members who visited Sea- 
beck made it quite plain that associa- 
tion with other young men and discus- 
sion of each other's problems were the 
most important things derived from the | 
conference. They also stated that the 
atmosphere about the place was of the 
kind conducive to the purpose of the 
conference and that there were the best 
kinds of recreation possible; boating, 
swimming, tennis, and baseball. 



HRSFTIIRS 

Dere Gentil Reeders — : 

It has been stated that we need more 
humor in the Crescent, so we are start- 
ing a new column entitled "HRSFTHRS." 
Pronounce like it's spelled. If good fun 
without slander is what P. C. students 
want, you may show your appreciation 
by supporting this column, body and 
sole. We have here a few 'starters' 
turned in by the staff, but after this 
we ask the students to turn their ques- 
tions, personal problems, and requests 
to the Crescent editor and he will per- 
sonally hand them safely to the newly 
appointed HRSFTHRS editor. Bogus 
names may be signed to your questions, 
but don't forget to ask AUNTY 
HRSFTHRS jour personal questions 
and she'll guarantee to answer them 
in the next issue and to see that no 
metal can touch you! Make HRSFTHRS 
your personal guide to health and hap- 
piness! 

1. Dear HRSFTIIRS: 

I've wondered for a long time how 
to become brave like Bonnie Hunting- 
ton. 

Signed. Weak hart. 

Dear Wenkbart: 

Your own HRSFTHRS has searched 
for days for an answer for your prob- 
lem, and only yesterday we saw Benny 
choking Mary Sue in the hall, and I 
will truthly tell you that when you get 
that brave, you have become a man. 

SISTER HRSFTHRS. 



SAYS WE 

Now is the time for every good ed- 
itor and correspondent to tell the stu- 
dents how much he has appreciated 
what they have never done for him 
and to hope that they will do the same 
for his successor. In other words, the 
Fourth Years favor a revival of school 
spirit. 

The elections this year seem to be 
taking on a very interesting aspect. Not 
wishing to be partisan in any way, the 
Fourth Years mprely hope that the 
people will elect those who are best 
fitted for the offices. 

By the time this meets your glance, 
the Fourth Yeais hope that a drinking 
fountain will again be installed in the 
main hall. We must have something 
with which to drown our sorrows. 

The Physics class has been learning 
some very shocking things lately — 
mostly about electricity. 

It seems that our basketball team is 
not entiiely incapable of doing us any- 
thing but "great dishonors" and we are 
glad that such may be the case.

February 12 

Recognition service for the new mem- 
bers of the Y. W. was held on February 
12, after which the playlet, "Queer Peo- 
ple," was presented under the direction 
of the Religious Meetings Committee. 
This play showed how queer we Amer- 
icans are, thinking we are the best and 
most civilized race in the world, when 
practically all of our civilization has 
been given to us by other races: our 
writing comes from the Egyptians, our 
art and architecture from the Creeks 
and Romans, our alphabet from the 
Phoenicians, besides many others. 

February 19 

Mrs. Mildred Colcord spoke in Y. W. 
on "Home Making." .A leal home has 
three things: satisfaction, comfort, and 
happiness. But fiist, in order to make 
a home, there must be cooperation, and, 
most important of all, the personal 
touch. Lastly, no home Is complete 
without religious training. 



2. Dear HRS: 

I have two chances to marry. One 
of the girls is beautiful beyond measure 
hut has both parents living. The other 
is not so beautiful but has only a fa- 
ther living. Please decide for me or 
tell me bow to decide. 

Lovingly B, A. Nocker. 
Dear Master Necker: 

If your name means what I think it 
does, you'd better go find an orphan. 
Faithfully yours, 

GRANNY HRSFTIIRS. 



As an interesting comment on the 
quality of Pacific Academy graduates il 
might be observed that in the recent 
extemporaneous contest Pacific College 
was represented by La Verne Hutchens 
of the academy class of '2!) and that 
Pacific University was veiy well repre- 
sented by Errett Hummel of the same 
academy class. 



The girls of the doimitory who live 
i upstairs have a very interesting bulle- 
tin board on which is posted various 
cartoons, helpful bints, and good jokes.

3. Dear Aunt HRSY: 

I'm a very attractive girl and I like 
a young gentleman, but I have a boil 
on my nose. Please tell me which I 
should get rid of, the boil, or the young 
gentleman? 

You is M. Waterboy. 
Dear M1f.s Wateiboy: 

You can always get another young 
gentleman but boils don't come when 
you want them, so I would advise gi t- 
ting rid of the young gentleman. 

Always <I-U HRSFTIIRS.

18th CENTURY REVIEWED 

Away back in the 18th century when 
women wore powdered wigs and sat on 
Chippendale chairs. Benjamin Franklin 
wrote his proverbial sayings in Poor 
Richard's Almanac. In fact many of 
the historical events and customs of 
that period, to say nothing of the styles 
in dress and furniture were discussed 
by Marion Coffee in the Trefian meet- 
ing last week. Then too, Miss Arloene 
Davey and Master Pauline Crew (old 
fashioned lovers) presented a charming 
little musical pantomime, "Crossing the 
Style."

LIFE 

Life is a street car 
Where all are comfortably seated 
But the poets. 
Strange creatures — 
They wabble in a more or less un- 
certain manner, 
Strap-hanging to the moon and stars.
